Theater Tailgate #1 (The 39 Steps @ Orlando Shakespeare Theater) September 19, 2010

“Are you ready for some theater?!”

Get psyched for the Central Florida premiere of Patrick Barlow’s Tony® Award-winning play The 39 Steps by participating in a game-changing theater tailgate, in the parking lot prior to the 2pm matinee performance at Orlando Shakespeare Theater.

Peformance artist Brian Feldman (who made his professional acting debut with Orlando Shakespeare Theater at age 10) is no stranger to the theater tailgate, having tailgated for many productions over the years - in theater lobbies, sidewalks and parking lots. However, this marks the very first time he’s invited the public to join in on the fun.

So set your alarm, make your way over to Orlando Loch Haven Park with some theater-loving friends bright and early Sunday... and get ready for some theater!

This independent project (inspired in part by Sincerely, John Head) is not sanctioned, endorsed or sponsored by Orlando Shakespeare Theater, Samuel French, Inc. or Hank Williams, Jr.
